Hey, here's a nice story that really makes you wonder if the FBI are actually serious about prosecuting criminal behaviour, or do they just like to go after teenage kids. I mean, we know they're going to bring the hammer down on the two kids who social-engineered Comcast's domain for giggles, regardless of how little the actual cost was, but 700Mb of email which was mostly dirty laundry getting leaked never did result in anything that I could see happening to MediaDefender. Now we've got a news story about how MediaDefender apparently just launched a large denial of service attack against a company for having been kicked off their torrent servers for filling them with bogus torrents, when said torrent servers were only for the companies own content in the first place (like, this apparently wasn't a place you could push up bootlegs, or even home movies to). The article does mention that the FBI is "looking into the matter" but if 700Mb of admissions of guilt didn't do it, I don't see how this is going to affect much. MediaDefender commits more felonies |
